  39. One of my favorites is macaroni and milk. Basically, you use cooked egg noodles and add milk, a little salt and pepper and heat it up. My Mom use to make this for us when we were kids and now my family enjoys it too. Thanks so much.

  47. On of my favorite comfort foods is Chicken Noodle Soup, not from a can but the homemade kind. Sometimes I will cut corners and use rotisserie chicken from the grocery store but nonetheless its still made in my kitchen! Nothing beats it after working outside during the winter months.

  72. One of my absolute favorite comfort foods is my homemade rice casserole (you can use egg noodles if you want :-D). The mushrooms, cheese, and sour cream are divine and so mushy. hahaha!

    Just made this tonight and followed the recipe exactly and it was easy to prepare and it was delicious. I will be making this again. Made enough for leftovers for another meal. I have never made a recipe of yours that wasn’t good so thank you for sharing.

    Holly not long enough you mentioned In “N” Out burgers and how awesome they were. Well in a few weeks we are heading to Las Vegas and going to give them a try. Will let you know what we thought of them.
